These are the first smart glasses I’ve tried that I could actually wear all day
The MemoMind AI glasses look almost indistinguishable from normal specs. Plus, they're light, comfortable, and offer every feature I want
I’ve worn my fair share of smart glasses over the past couple of years, but most of them have ended up stuffed in a drawer next to a tangle of USB-C cables. I even went as far as putting my prescription in the Meta Ray-Bans, but they’re just too uncomfortable.
So when MemoMind, a new offshoot from projector brand Xgimi, asked me to put its AI-powered specs on my face, I wasn’t expecting much. But instead, I found myself thinking that I could actually wear these all day.
For a start, MemoMind’s glasses don’t look like a piece of tech, unlike every other pair I’ve tried. Rather, they look like normal specs – lightweight, understated, and dare I say stylish. That part’s up to you, since you can essentially build your own frames, with eight frame styles, five swappable temples, and full prescription support. The Memo Air Display clocks in at just 28.9 grams. That’s lighter than most traditional eyewear and yet it crams in a monocular display, battery, and plenty of AI smarts.
MemoMind hasn’t crammed in features just for the sake of spec sheet glory. Instead, everything here feels like it was designed with actual use in mind. The Air Display’s single-eye setup serves up just the right amount of visual info without turning your glasses into another screen. Memo One, the more feature-packed sibling, adds speakers and a dual-eye display for those who want the full experience without strapping a tablet to their face.
MemoMind’s operating system uses multiple AI models, picking between OpenAI, Azure, and Qwen depending on what you’re asking. You get features like translations, summaries, reminders, and the answer to ask any question. There’s even a nifty “Question & Answer” feature that displays the answer to any question on the display. I’ll definitely be wearing them text time I play trivia.
Of course, it also pairs to your phone to sync your calendar and notifications, while you can play music and take phone calls. Battery should last a full day, and with the included charging case, you can stretch that out to a week before needing to think about power again.
MemoMind showed of its range of smart glasses at CES 2026. Preorders for the Memo One will begin within the next two months, priced at $599. The other models will follow shortly after.
